The book

This web series is based on “How dare they? – The Euro, the crisis and the big hold-up” by Peter Mertens, EPO distribution.

The Eyjafjallajökull is a natural phenomenon. The economic crisis is not. It should not invite bewilderment about untameable powers, but outrage. After the crisis of 2008, bankers, money-grabbers, and bubble blowers got … even more power. In a big hold-up, millions of Euros changed owners to the hands of millionaires again. In Europe, the speculators were attributed a royal standing, and are now tamely called “markets”. As if they were emperor Nero, they decide – with a thumbs up or thumbs down – about the future of entire peoples. From Greece to Italy to the north they are demanding again that you and me pay for the crisis, for the second time. How dare they!
